Animal Diversity Report: Comparison of the Nervous and Reproductive Systems of the Compass Jellyfish, Axolotl, Horseshoe Crab, and The Compass Jellyfish (Chrysaora hysoscella) - The Compass Jellyfish (Chrysaora hysoscella) is a species of jellyfish that can be found in cold and temperate waters near the continental shelf regions of the Irish and North Seas, the Mediterranean, and coastal regions of South Africa (Doyle et. al.). The Compass Jellyfish belongs to the Genus Chrysaora and the…

pool in a small group of organisms or species due to chance. Gene flow is when an organism or species migrates between different populations. This causes a variation in genetics because of a new gene being introduced in the population. Comparative embryology studies the embryos of different organisms and species. The embryos of different species and organisms show commonalities that suggest a common ancestor. Modern examples of evolution can be shown by studying the results of scientific…

Enamel is the hardest substance in the body, which it has to be to endure the biting forces of everyday mastication and clenching that people often put their teeth through. Enamel is the outer layer on the crown of the tooth which give the teeth that is esthetically pleasing to the eye. However, enamel is not able to replenish itself so once it is gone there is no way for the body to regenerate more. A 12-year-old female girl has new molars coming in and the appearance of them is a…

With all the school work that I have, I thought of finding an activity that will take my mind off work. Apart from my biggest involvement in dance, I have also been involved with the Pre-Medical Society, summer programs, and church. In addition to relieving me from my school and family stress, being involved in such activities has helped my social and time management skills. In school, I have involved myself in the Pre-Medical Society since the beginning of my freshman year. Every other week,…

Compilation of the Holy Quran The holy book was written almost thrice. First of all it was written when it was revealed to the Holy Prophet (PBUH) at that time when a new verse was revealed to the Holy Prophet (PBUH) he asked one of his companions to write it down. Along with that the companions of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) were memorizing it also. During his time the Quran was being preserved by memorization, and it was being written on stones, bark, bones, leaves etc also. It was completely…

The Gastrointestinal System The gastrointestinal tract is a collection of organs that work together to enable the body to digest and absorb numerous substances. It is often described as a long muscular tube starting at the mouth, and ending at the anus. The esophagus, stomach, small intestine (consisting of the duodenum, jejunum, and the ileum), and the large intestine (consisting of the cecum, ascending, transverse, and descending colon, the sigmoid, rectum, and anus), all make up the…

Although are many kinds of lupus, they all fall under one category, an autoimmune disease. Autoimmune diseases occur when the body actually becomes allergic to itself. This happens when the antibodies used to protect the body from infectious agents attack the healthy cells and tissues instead (The Lupus Book). The types of lupus include discoid lupus, subacute cutaneous lupus, drug-induced lupus, neonatal lupus, and systemic lupus erythematosus, the most common type. Lupus damages many parts of…

process is applied to fertilized human eggs in vitro, causing them to split into identical genetic copies of the original. Overall, Science is a big factor because of the futuristic aspect of the book. When psychology is combined with advances in embryology, “would permit not only extensive social conditioning but prenatal education, a possibility dramatized by Huxley in Brave New World, where one of his characters is named after Watson and genetic engineering has become a necessary part of the…

because of the fact that it is living and possess full genetic code, however they are not considered to be real human organisms which makes both a zygote and embryo not an actual human being as well (Source 2). On the contrary, research conducted on embryology authenticate that skin cells are part of a larger organism, while the…

Physicians are expected to use an unbiased, medical perspective to provide effective, personalized treatment for their patients. Increasingly, the modern standard of medicine, and thus patient satisfaction, is moving toward cultural sensitivity of medical practitioners, as demonstrated by the clam that “Cultural identity…demand[s] explicit recognition in health care,” (Kirmayer). In fact, physicians are being accused of delivering deficient medical advice as a result of cultural insensitivity.…
